President Bola Tinubu, campaigning in Edo State, asks voters to re-elect him for a second term to complete federal projects and consolidate achievements. The appeal is delivered through Vice President Kashim Shettima at an All Progressives Congress (APC) Presidential Campaign Council rally in Benin City.
Across the reports, outlets frame the same core message: the administration has completed some initiatives while others remain under way. Cited examples include road construction and rehabilitation (such as the Ekpoma–Auchi–Okene corridor and repairs on the Benin–Asaba highway), power sector progress including the Obiafu–Obrikom–Oben gas pipeline and new transmission infrastructure, and health support such as radiotherapy services at the University of Benin Teaching Hospital and federal backing for public health facilities in Edo.
One outlet also highlights cultural diplomacy, mentioning the reported return of Benin cultural artefacts to Nigeria after ownership transfers involving institutions in Cambridge and Sweden. In addition, Edo State Governor Monday Okpebholo is reported to express confidence in APC prospects for the 2027 election.
